How serious is the Pavelec injury? Will he be out a while?
With Pavelec going down tonight would anyone drop Elliot to pick up Hutchinson?

Just picked him up. Allen has that job locked. I would you can wait for him to get going.

Shane Doan just helped the Jets franchise enormously!! Someone was finally able to get another goalie to take over the crease from Pavelec.
- I said... "God damn this tablet is heavy!"
Or does this give the jets a chance to look at Hellebuyck? Personally I think Hutchinson will be an OK grab but look at his last few games - I wouldn't be over reaching
P.S with Elliott back and posting a quality start last time out (despite the loss) I don't think it's time to leave him yet
Thanks. Still not sure. Might try and trade Elliott again to the Allen owner. Problem is the 2 day voting period once trade is excepted. I also thought about dropping Elliott, picking up Varlamov, putting him on IR and then pick up Hutch.
Well, Hutch just got picked up and Helly at this point is unavailable in My ESPN league.

Ok, so Helly is now available on ESPN. Would any of you drop Elliott for him or any other of these goalies:
Howard, Varly, Mason, Greiss or Vas?
this is so dependent on the league and the league settings. in my 12-team season-long roto keeper, most owners keep 2 goalies and everyone keeps at least 1. the first goalies drafted this year were ryan miller, then mike smith, then jonathan bernier. in that league i jumped on hellebuyck as soon as pavelec was reported to be on crutches, because even a 15% or 20% chance that hellebuyck seizes the job this year would mean i was set for years at the most difficult position to acquire.
but in another league (weekly H2H keeper), we have 12 owners and the most goalies we've seen kept in one off-season were 8.
if you're in a keeper league and you're willing to take some short-term risk, go for it. hellebuyck's situation--competing with pavelec and hutchinson--is surely more favorable than either gibson's (andersen and khudobin) or vasilevskiy's (bishop).
in a one-year league, i'd rather have all of the players you mentioned. it could be argued hellebuyck has some hammond-like upside this year, but even mason and greiss have short-term upside if they get on a tear or if their competition gets injured. the jets' preferred plan was to leave hellebuyck in the minors and there's a good chance he ends up back in the AHL in january when pav is healthy.

Thanks Superfly. I picked up Varly for now. We'll see what happens. Helly doesn't clear waivers until Thursday.
